During an expedition in the Arctic, Anthony Conrad became separated from his father, Dr. John Conrad, and fell through the ice, falling unconscious. When he regains consciousness, he finds himself under the care of a doctor who informs him that he is in the king's castle. After recovering, he is taken to the king's presence. The king tells Anthony that he is in Arctica, an underground kingdom. Many years ago, he too had been an explorer and like Anthony, he too fell through the ice. Arctica is a land of deep forests plagued by strange creatures and whose civilization is medieval. The old king needed a successor and fate sent him Anthony Conrad. Anthony decides to accept because, as the old king suggests, as long as he does not find a way to return home, it is better to reign than to be a subject of any despot. But to become king, Anthony must overcome three challenges to prove his worth as a future sovereign:
Defeat a giant with his bare hands; Killing a fearsome dragon-like beast called Tyros; and defeating the kingdom's greatest archer in a duel. After winning each challenge, he is crowned King Anthony.
